The Division of Institutional Advancement is one of eight administrative divisions at Dillard University. We advance the university through the support of our students, alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and friends of Dillard.
Institutional advancement is made up of four departments:
The Office of Alumni Relations engages and maintains mutually beneficial relationships for our alumni. Alumni Relations create engagement opportunities for alumni to connect with students, foster a sense of community, and encourage continued involvement with the university.
The Office of Church & Community Relations focuses on building and maintaining relationships within the broader community.
The Office of Development is responsible for creating and maintaining funding opportunities for the university through prospect research, cultivation, and stewardship. The goal is to build relationships with donors, alumni, corporations, and foundations to grow funding for generations to come.
The Office of Information Services manages our donor database to support operations
